The Monkey Time - Major Lance

作词：Curtis Mayfield

作曲：Curtis Mayfield

There＇s a place right across town

Whenever you＇re ready

Where people gather ＇round

Whenever they＇re ready

And then the music begins to play

You feel a groove comin＇ on it＇s way

Are you ready (are you ready)

Well you get yours cause-a I got mine

For the Monkey Time (Monkey Time)

(Monkey Time)

Now the dance that the people do

I don＇t know how it started

All I know is that when the beat brings a feel

It＇s so hard to get parted

And then the music begins to play

Automatically you＇re on your way

Are you ready (are you ready)

Well you get yours cause-a I got mine

For the Monkey Time

Do the Monkey yeah (do the Monkey Time)

Do the Monkey yeah (do the Monkey Time)

Ah-twist them hips (twist them hips)

Let your backbone slip (let your backbone slip)

Now move your feet (move your feet)

Get on the beat (get on the beat)

Are you ready (are you ready)

Well you get yours cause-a I got mine

For the Monkey Time (Monkey Time)

(Monkey Time)

Now the dance that the people do

I don＇t know how it started

All I know is that when the beat brings a feel

It＇s so hard to get parted

And then the music begins to play

Automatically you＇re on your way

Are you ready (are you ready)

Well you get yours cause-a I got mine

For the Monkey Time (Monkey Time)

Ah do the Monkey yeah Monkey time

Give me a big strong line Monkey time

You＇re lookin＇ real fine
